This is an uncharted and unique time, and the landscape seems to be shifting daily (if not hourly). At Tri-I, we are doing our best to adapt to our “new normal” and support our students and the larger Tri-I community. While we are not physically in the MD-PhD office, we are all still working and available. If you need to get in touch with us, the best way is to send an email to mdphd@med.cornell.edu.
